A daily, midday, news package which featured an in depth interview about a current news topic. Viewers could phone in and ask questions of the key interviewee.

  • 1Kawerau Pulp and Paper Mill In 24 hours, Kawerau's Pulp and Paper Mill - and mainstay of the town's economy - will be mothballed, and with it the loss of around 2000 jobs. The Tasman Pulp and Paper Company claims there is an urgent need to reduce manning and introduce new technology. A small group of angry Kawerau women rallied yesterday and offered to take the place of striking locked-out workers at the mill. While grateful for their offer, the company has turned them down, saying it plans to proceed with the mill closure this week. What options are left for the mill workers and their families? Discussion and viewer feedback with the spokesperson for the Kawerau Wives, Christine Armstrong.
